So #DuckDuckGo have a browser. Well - let's give it a spin. Do we add this to PUP list? Installed it on a brand new stock Windows laptop. The first thing you get is some sort of induction/onboarding screen, 1 of 4 - groan ok, first page obvious information, second page ... a video... I can't see how to stop this and just start using the browser, because tempus fugit. Nope. Onboard or Uninstall that is your options. Uninstalled.
Potestowałem tego chata AI z DuckDuckGo i jest bezużyteczny. Okroili go z wielu rzeczy, prywatności, nieszkodzenia nikomu, nawet kodu Morse'a nie odszyfruje. #DuckDuckGo#chatAI
Folks, I know… I use Duck Duck Go also but remember they have venture capital. Enjoy it while it lasts (or let’s fund and build alternatives differently that aren’t temporary businesses with profit motives and exits but commons-owned institutions working for the common good).
So it seems that #DuckDuckGo was down for the last few hours because of a #Bing outage. That's very annoying; DDG should probably get out from under Microsoft's coat tails...
23.5.2024 - Der Tag an dem offensichtlich wurde, dass Bing praktisch die einzige verbliebene Alternative zu Google ist. Alle anderen "Suchmaschinen" sind Bing mit Schlapphut und Trenchcoat. 🕵️
I've tried in multiple browsers, both with and without plugins enabled, yet DuckDuckGo is still failing to provide search results (here, at least) just responding;
There was an error displaying the search results. Please try again.
It's been this way for several hours. Anyone else seeing the same? I'm in the UK.
While #DuckDuckGo is down, I tried out a few other search engines. I did a search I made yesterday in each. #Bing gave me an interesting looking blog first, then some less-related info from high-trust sources, then an interesting paper, then a bunch of garbage. #Mojeek gave me nothing that looked interesting, just pages that used some of the words from my search. #Kagi gave me the less-related high-trust sources first, then the entire rest of the first page looked interesting.
